This week I have decided to write about snowstorms. I thought this was fitting since we just had a big snowstorm last week, and we ended up having virtual classes. I remember waking up one morning last week, and the first thing I did was look outside my window. Even though I had already been anticipating the snow because of the forecasts and constant chatter about it, I was still a little surprised to see the green grass completely replaced by a thick sheet of glistening white snow. I was very glad that we were able to have a snow day, and I ended up sleeping in and then enjoying my day by relaxing.
Personally, I'm not a huge fan of winter or the snow. The only time I enjoy the snow is around Christmastime, but after that passes, it starts to annoy me. I just don't enjoy cold weather at all, and I would much rather be tanning under the warm sun or walking around in shorts and a T-shirt. My birthday falls on January 23 which is pretty much the middle of winter. Coincidentally, on a lot of my birthdays in the past, there have been huge snowstorms. This was pretty annoying but thankfully there wasn't one this year.
Even though I dislike the snow and the freezing cold, I did make some pretty fun memories in the snow as a young kid. I live on a hill, so when it used to snow, my neighbors and I would go sledding. We would make a long, twisty sledding path and take turns going down the hill. It was so fun, although we ended up crashing into trees or a shed from time to time. I also remember making snow angels and snowmen. My favorite part was when my mom used to bring hot chocolate out to my neighbors and I. So, even though I dislike the snow, it has given me some pretty amazing memories.

Awh, I love thinking about my childhood memories in the snow! The snow also really annoys me after Christmastime. Shoveling is my least favorite thing, especially now that I drive.

DeleteI agree, the snow can be pretty annoying sometimes, especially when you have to go places. But, I also get really excited when it snows--it makes me happy for some reason. I also have a hill near my house that all my neighbors' kids and even kids from other neighborhoods like to sled down! Last time when it snowed, I took a walk past that hill and saw a lot of kids laughing and sledding down the hill with their parents watching over them. It really made me remember how care free I used to be with my friends, playing on that same hill years ago.
